The 12.4/16 tire size is commonly used on the front wheels of two-wheel-drive tractors and the rear wheels of compact and utility tractors. It’s also found on some agricultural implements and garden tractors. These tires are designed for tasks like mowing, light tillage, hauling, and general farm work. A tough casing of these tires resists punctures from stubble and debris, while a durable rubber compound prevents weather cracking. The tread pattern of 12/4-16 tires offers reliable traction on soft ground and turf, minimizing soil compaction.
